I think you should get the actual cert for Sylvester's marriage to see if his Dad's occupation gets you any leads.

Interesting ~ there is a Sylvester Doyle on GV in Ballynamuddagh, Bray.

If the Doyles were farmers it's possible this could be a Grandad of your Sylvester.

Long Shot but put it in the possible pile !

3 named possible locations are closer than I thought !

My point was just that there are two Sylvester's b abt the same time.

I know of 5 Silvester Doyles baptised in the county from 1841-1850, the 1847 Bray one I mentioned is the only one with parents' forenames that match, but you're right, lots of baptisms aren't covered in the first place.

Guys you're both amazing, thank you. I am going to do some digging over the weekend with the new info I have. If I start piecing this together those cemetery records could be brilliant Tara. I'll have a look in my folder later and see if I have Syl and Mary's marriage cert and get back to you.

I do have the marriage cert and both fathers are listed as labourers. Not hugely helpful.

Tara,

You mention in reply 19 that there is another Syl Doyle on GV. What's that?
